Driving back to the Pei family's old house, she followed the housekeeper to the living room. Pei Chengli and Liu Hezhu were already sitting on the sofa waiting for her. Their faces were cold, and Liu Hezhu had a sarcastic look in her eyes.

"Shen Xiao, do you know about the Shen Group?"

Pei Chengli opened his mouth on this topic, and Shen Xiao nodded lightly without hesitation.

"Know."

"You signed the contract and project, but now there is such a big mess. I understand that you want to support the family, but this is not the way to support!"

After Pei Chengli finished speaking, he gently rubbed his chest and said, "Go back and take care of your relatives, be careful in your words and deeds, and don't cause any more trouble to the Pei Group!"

This was the first time that Pei Chengli scolded her so seriously after she married Pei Sichen.

Shen Xiao suppressed the grievance in his heart, lowered his eyes and spoke softly, "Yes, Dad, I will go back immediately to resolve this matter, don't worry."

"How can you reassure me?"

Pei Chengli finished venting his anger and was too lazy to talk to her anymore. He waved his hand gently and said, "That's it, just do it as you see fit. Do it quickly and don't let Ms. Shen embarrass herself again!"

"yes."

Shen Xiao responded in a low voice, and Liu Hezhu next to him brought Pei Chengli a cup of herbal tea, and persuaded with a smile: "Master, don't be angry, Xiaoxiao is so capable, he will definitely be able to solve it."

She glanced at Shen Xiao intentionally or unintentionally, and the mocking look on her face made Shen Xiao feel even more uncomfortable, as if she was being fried on a frying pan. She quickly said hello and hurriedly exited the living room.

Now there is absolutely no way out.

Shen Xiao breathed out softly again.

At this moment, a familiar old voice sounded in her ears: "Xiaoxiao, you are finally willing to come see me, an old man."

These words seemed to have the power to warm people's hearts. Shen Xiao's eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice also sobbed.

From the Shen family to the Pei family, the old man was the only person who really cared about her.

Only the old man can see her grievance and confusion.

"grandfather."

"Xiaoxiao, are you encountering a problem?"

"Yes, Grandpa."

Shen Xiao said in a low voice: "There are some problems with Shen's second phase project. Huayue is going to sue Shen. Can grandpa persuade Si Chen not to sue."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Pei sighed heavily.

"Xiaoxiao, if there is a problem with the project, it cannot be solved by simply not suing."

"I know that my sister-in-law has promised me that she will immediately replace the contractor who cut corners, rebuild the project, and re-plan the problematic areas."

Shen Xiao explained repeatedly, his voice getting more and more choked up. The grievances he had endured for a long time were like a torrent in front of Mr. Pei, and tears fell down in response.

Mr. Pei sighed in distress. He knew this stubborn but gentle girl very well. Ever since she was a child, she had secretly shouldered all the grievances she had suffered.

How could he not feel distressed?

"Smile, don't cry, listen to grandpa tell you."

Mr. Pei persuaded her in a low voice: "Grandpa has retired and can no longer interfere with the affairs of the group. You can only find Si Chen yourself. You are husband and wife, and he will definitely help you."

"It's impossible, Grandpa, he signed the document to sue Mr. Shen himself."

Shen Xiao's tears fell down, "If he could withdraw the lawsuit, how could I beg Grandpa?"

"Good boy, how will you know if you don't try?"

Mr. Pei persuaded patiently: "Xiaoxiao, don't take everything against yourself. You can also show weakness to him appropriately. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

"Well, let's go ahead and do it. The day after tomorrow is his birthday."

"I know, Grandpa, don't worry." Shen Xiao sighed softly.

How could she not remember Pei Sichen's birthday?

When he was in high school, he was an out-and-out Leo. She secretly folded 999 origami cranes out of colored paper, and drew a lion's head on each one.

Later he laughed at her for being naive, but put the paper cranes on his desk.

After that, she would do this every time it was his birthday until...

The memory suddenly stopped, and Shen Xiao gently closed his eyes.

Can not go back.

The Shen Group's affairs were imminent, and she could no longer waste time.

Shen Xiao's slender figure disappeared from Mr. Pei's sight, and Mr. Pei sighed deeply.

I hope the relationship between them can ease this time!

On the way back to Huayue, Shen Xiao thought for a moment and dialed Pei Sichen's phone number.

Once, twice...

In the office of the president of Pei Group, Pei Sichen's cell phone was placed on the table, vibrating constantly.

He didn't want to answer.

Secretary Li had already told him that Shen Xiao asked about Huayue Group's lawsuit against Shen. Grandpa also called just now, but she actually went to beg him first!

The phone was still vibrating, and Pei Sichen glanced at it impatiently.

In the past, when Shen Xiao called, if he didn't answer, she wouldn't call again, but this time he deliberately waited until the fourth time before he slowly picked up.

When the call was connected, he didn't bother to speak first. After a short silence, Shen Xiao's familiar soft voice sounded softly.

"Hey, Si Chen."

"Um?"

"The day after tomorrow is your birthday, can you have dinner with me tonight?" Shen Xiao took a breath, "I want to treat you to dinner and wish you a happy birthday."

Her voice was soft, as if she had added sugar. Pei Sichen was stunned, and his thoughts were suddenly pulled away.

How long has it been since I heard such a sound?

In high school, she always followed him like this, her voice was just like it is now, soft and soft, and her smile had two dimples that made people's hearts beat.

The irritability in his heart inexplicably improved a lot, and Pei Sichen hummed in a low voice.

He agreed!

Shen Xiao's heart was beating with excitement, but he still forced his voice to calm down: "Then where do you want to eat?"

"what ever."

Pei Sichen hung up the phone impatiently.

It was only later that he realized that he had involuntarily agreed to her invitation. It must have been what grandpa said just now that had an effect.

That's all, for the sake of the old man's happiness, so what if he puts on a show?

Besides, Shen Xiao must have done this just to beg him!

Thinking of the indictment mentioned by his grandfather, Pei Sichen threw his phone aside irritably.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xiao was busy non-stop.

For Shen's sake, she must make the birthday party the night after tomorrow perfect.

After deciding on the location of the restaurant, Shen Xiao went straight into the watch shop.

She still remembered his favorite watch, which was his dream when he was a boy.

But at that time, she didn't have enough money to buy it. After all, the price was high. Later, both Pei Sichen and she had enough money, and he also had many new watches, so he no longer thought about it.

After taking a look at the exquisite dial, Shen Xiao smiled at the clerk.
